Again, go shorter w/ your jacket lengths :)<br /><br />Hope that helps!

Make sure your jackets and tops are longer to cut down the length and bring you into better proportion.Leslie aka "MissusSmartyPants"https://www.blogger.com/profile/17046854490448047197noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-974005426631136538.post-42792902923415973052011-09-24T14:53:27.979-07:002011-09-24T14:53:27.979-07:00I have a question.

Try wearing a cute skirt and top or shell instead. The separate pieces allows you to adjust the lengths. For example, you&#39;ll want to wear a high-hip length top and a skirt that comes to around your knees for the best look!Leslie aka "MissusSmartyPants"https://www.blogger.com/profile/17046854490448047197noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-974005426631136538.post-21338735688920604252011-07-16T14:10:05.796-07:002011-07-16T14:10:05.796-07:00Hi!

I am long legged, short waisted AND petite (and 163 cm tall, which is actually pretty average!), so a jacket that hits around my hips (did I mention I am high hipped as well?) is the best length on me, making the most of my curvy top and leaving my long legs alone. Truth is, I feel almost naked without a jacket, as it downplays my rather extreme curves a little.beigegirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15964480336681650470noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-974005426631136538.post-42759804107346309712011-05-06T21:30:49.657-07:002011-05-06T21:30:49.657-07:00I just wanted to thank you again!

Since childhood, I&#39;ve only liked one dress that I have owned. Being as tiny as I am, trying on dresses is so discouraging! But NOT today! I am wild with delight!

One has a tuxedo cut, the other a standard regular cut. I opted for 2 so that I could balance details. Plain top + tuxedo cut jacket or detailed top + plain jacket.<br />I think I&#39;m average waisted, but I believe I have a longer rise. The rise issue makes fitting pants to my person a challenge. Well, that and the fact that my waist is one size, and my hips and thighs are a size larger. I am a skinny girl with curves, and much of what I find in my price range is stuff for someone else&#39;s frame. I find a predominance of low rise pants, which provides tush cleavage at times, even with a belt. Or maybe I just have a lot of junk in my trunk, and I need to find pants that address that.Feisty Irish Wenchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00689381839029507940noreply@blogger.com
